The 48-year-old athlete lost the fight to Austrian Walter Hahn (Gunther). After the match, Cena said goodbye to the public, leaving his shoes and wristbands in the ring.
It's been a pleasure serving you all these years. Thank you
This match between Cena and Gunther, where the "Ring General" forced the legend to submit, has been a topic of discussion in the wrestling community and will likely play a significant role in Gunther's future.
Although the 17-time WWE world champion has ended his active career in the ring, he is not leaving the company. WWE head Triple H confirmed that John Cena will continue to work in a new important role.
On SNME Post Show, Triple H revealed: "I believe he (John Cena – ed.) will continue to work as an ambassador and beyond, obviously he has a passion for helping others."
Given Cena's brilliant career and connection to WWE, his transition to an ambassadorial role is entirely appropriate for representing the company.
